Okay, so they want money. Give ’em money. THIS way.

December 21, 2012 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Really. The best Christmas present is the one THEY want. But make it into a gift YOU want to give with a little showmanship.

First up, some simple origami folds for cold hard cash:

Sweet cash. Holiday dough. Wouldn’t THIS be a fun way to sweeten someone’s budget?

This next one is great for rolls of coins. They DO still make these, right?

Dress up rolls of quarters for a fun gift, says TGtbT.com

The Pin connects to the how-to!

This final suggestion is a wonderful way to give money. After all, SOMEone has to empty the chocolate box first, right? Might as WELL be you.

Candy box currency makes the cah gift even sweeter says HowToConsign.com

Yum. Better than chocolate!

Hope you’ve enjoyed these ways to give cash. BTW, my address is on my home page if I’m on your Nice List… 😉

      Yup, Deb, my fave too! Cute and calorie-free (for the recipient, ’cause I ate all the candy…)
